It’s a beautiful watch. The moment you open the box it strikes at you. It has a golden rim and two-tone belt. The gray dial is beautiful and striking. All the hands and functions on the dial are nicely placed.

Functionality: Its radio controlled, dual time Home and a secondary time zone
DST Daylight saving time function which can switched on or off, day and date function and power indicator.

Technical issues.

Initial interaction with the watch can be mind boggling and make you think why did I get this watch but believe me its very easy just follow these simple instructions. Following the instructions from the manual and you tube is really cumbersome and mind- boggling

As soon as you receive the watch do not rush for strap adjustment nor try pressing buttons without understanding

Crown position 0- checking
• Pressing “a” will show power reserve and signal reception. If power reserve low do not proceed just expose the watch to sunlight for recharging as it wont function efficiently with low power reserve.
• Pressing “b” will show primary time zone second hand moving to current city pressing “b” again will show secondary time zone.

Crown position 1- setting
• Press “a” the second hand will move to current city move the crown clockwise or counter clockwise to choose your city. Press “a” again it will show the secondary time zone, move the crown clockwise or counter clockwise to select secondary time zone.
• Press “b” sets DST on or off

WITH CROWN POSITION 0 AND PRESSING “a” look at the second hand. The second hand will show either ok radio signal is ok, RX searching mode- 2-15 mins- just don’t move the watch once it finds the signal the watch automatically sets itself to current time date and day and NO No signal

Crown 2 settings are rarely needed if needed you can try next day

Crown 2 –alarm and manual time setting
• Pressing “a” will help alarm time settings moving crown clockwise or counterclockwise will help set the alarm
• Pressing “b” rotating crown clockwise or counter clockwise you can adjust time, date, day all mechanically

You rarely need crown 2 settings

This is a brief summary of 50-page instruction manual and this is all you need

Once the initial setting is done you rarely need to do anything the watch does it for you

The watch is set to receive radio signals at 2:00 am when it corrects it self.

Thus you always get accurate time

Pros of the watch
• Nice and elegant watch
• Never needs battery
• Never looses time- accurate time keeping
• World time
• Looks rich and has a character

Cons of the watch
• Not a good one for those who don’t like technology needs a bit of playing around
• Calibration very tricky. Citizen should have introduced a reset button rather than cumbersome calibration you rarely need this
• The self illumination should have been more brighter

CROWN 0 AND PRESSING SIMULTANEOUSLY “a” and “b” will switch between primary and secondary time a rather helpful feature when you travel

Overall I give 5 stars for this watch even though its bit fiddly to begin with

This watch is the best one I have ever bought. I am a Seiko fan usually owner of 5 but when I saw this Citizen watch nothing in any other manufacturers range came close, in looks, features & price. I even got a 6 year warranty. Cant be beaten in my view

This is one very attractive watch and as is frequently the case, it looks even better in real life - it is an addition to my small collection of Citizen watches, all of which have never failed to impress I particularly like the maintenance free solar power and the absolute accuracy gained from the radio signal transmission. A watch for all occasions and particularly when travelling abroad.

I am probably one of the laziest people around but the facility to set two time zones and easily flip between them saves messing about re-setting the watch to the destination local time - you see, I have this thing about my watches and clocks being accurate and set to the correct time - not giving an approximation thereof, few people in my experience do not seem to be too bothered about this but for me, its like having a blunt razor whats the point?!

If there was anything detrimental to say, I guess itd be a no luminosity on the hour marks and b the minute hand could be just a little thicker - otherwise its great!
Several people have written reviews criticising the complex setting procedures, okay, it isnt the easiest task in the world but the instructions are comprehensive, Citizen has a step by step video and theres a helpful number of guides freely available on You Tube. Just tke your time sic and work through it and there should be no problem.
